Women’s Retreat | October 7-8 | $65 Per Person
God calls us to be His own. Then He equips His people to be devoted to good works and gives joy, even in the toil of that work. Whatever season of life a Christian is in, the Lord calls His people and gives them work, not that they would be saved, but that He would be glorified. Come learn more about His calling for you and what that means for you now. REFRESH with the women of Grace Life Church of Ankeny. Bring a friend. Renew relationships with old friends. Meet new friends.
